Yes, this is spot on. I am also somewhat ashamed of even responding. Someone has suggested journaling, but that makes it even more painful and I would not like for my husband or child to read it.
If not for NEUROTALK, I do not know what I would do.
And I know that I am probably not in as bad a shape as most.
Still going through the stages of grief.
